I found the source where Custom Carbon Fibre steering wheels are coming from (that various NA dealers are selling), and ordered one for myself. I customized it exactly how I wanted it. I paid $1094 Canadian ALL IN, delivered.

Now I just have to wait until April to install it ;(

And what is the source? Not that I can afford one but they are nicer than stock for sure. How difficult to install?

The C8 looks way easier to install than the C7. With the C8 or any other brand, if you got the shift lights and/or the heated function, you will have to splice into the wiring for power and ground. Then you you have to move all your buttons and coverings from one steering to the other. There are many Youtube videos that show the process. The hardest part (physically) is to remove the center bolt. They recommend to be 2 people for that one.

I know some will not like this but I got mine through Alibaba from Ever-Carbon Racing. I'm actually getting a 2nd one done because I found a different CF that will look better. I will put up the one I just got in the classifieds soon.

Thanks for the sharing.
ie. These custom rims seems pretty good to me at alot less money then the ones from well known brands.

Lol thanks I’ll do some google searching & see what’s on Alibaba as well!

silver/blue reflective CF in plain weave.

Similar to this but this is a twill weave.

For my C7, I also bought one through Alibaba from OHC motors. You can fully customize to what you want. It just sucks that they are about 12 hours difference, it makes it complicated to communicate with them.

why all the secrecy? just name the vendor...
